Xiaoqi

Fan Yong, the second general of the Wuwei Army, was dismissed by the lord!

This is undoubtedly the first major general to be removed from the command post of the Wuwei Army since its establishment, and he is also the sworn brother of the lord.This move shocked the generals like thunder on the ground, and the hero Li Li's stern and selfless style of governing the army was also branded in the hearts of the generals.Because when Li Xuan reported the military situation just now, he directly pointed out that Fan Yong made his own claim and let Han Sui and Ma Teng go. This made the great victory that could have wiped out all the princes in Liangzhou in one battle, and it was still difficult for Liangzhou to win. Depends on the battle.

Chapter 246

"My lord, this is the general order written by my subordinates, please read it over, my lord."

In the study, Li Xuan and Jia Xu came hand in hand.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Xuan presented the general order written according to Li Li's intention.

"Well, let Tie Xiao send it out as soon as possible." Li Li glanced at the brocade, then handed it back to Li Xuan, and said with a nod.

Li Xuan put away the silk book, and said softly, "My lord, the subordinates feel that the demotion order of Commander Fan Yong is a bit too heavy. Now is the time for employing people. Commander Fan Yong is highly skilled in martial arts, general knowledge, Considering the overall situation, Wen Tao and Wu Lue are really talented generals. My lord put him in the position of the Marquis of the Infantry Battalion, but buried his talent. The Infantry Battalion has no wars at the moment, and is only responsible for defending the city and pass The subordinates implore the lord to think twice."

"Wen He is here for this purpose?" Li Li looked at Jia Xu and murmured.

Jia Xu said in a respectful voice: "Subordinates seconded the proposal. Although Commander Fan Yong was suspected of arbitrarily making claims, he led the army to rescue in a timely manner in the battle of Hugh Tucheng, commanded it properly, and dispatched troops very reasonably. Casualties, more than [-] captives were captured in one fell swoop. This is a great achievement, and the merits and demerits are offset. The subordinates suggest that the lord should be fined and confiscated half a year's salary, and there is no need to dismiss him. Please also learn from the lord."

"So, do you two feel that you will not miss your old friendship, disregard your brotherhood, and deny your relatives?" Li Li asked in a deep voice.

After Jia Xu and Li Xuan heard the words, their expressions changed drastically, they got up and knelt down and said, "I dare not, and absolutely have no such intentions, my lord, please be careful."

Li Li raised his hand to signal the two to get up, and said in a deep voice: "Fan Yong is loyal, I have never doubted this, and I firmly believe it. What you said just now is not wrong. Fan Yong's mistake this time is not serious. The way he let Han Sui and Ma Teng go was very subtle, and many people didn't notice the abnormality. If people don't know, unless they do nothing, this matter will be known to all the generals sooner or later, and it cannot be hidden. The most important thing is that the follow-up impact of this matter will be huge. If the generals in the army are like Fan Yong, they will make their own decisions and do whatever they want The generals can do their own thing?

If things go on like this, where is the military prestige and where is the military discipline?Did they put me, Li Li, in their eyes? If there is no military discipline, how can the Wuwei Army succeed?so.This matter must be strictly investigated and dealt with, even if he, Fan Yong, is the general's sworn brother!If Ben will find out that he has private contacts with Han Sui, Ma Teng and others.Removals are just the beginning.Once it is verified that it is correct, I will never show favoritism, and I will definitely kill it! "

"Ah!" Jia Xu and Li Xuan cried out in surprise when they heard Li Li's last sentence, "I will never be forgiven".

"My subordinate is guilty, please punish me!" Jia and Li said with a bow.

Li Li suddenly grinned.He smiled and said: "Get up quickly and take your seat. This matter has nothing to do with the two of you, so there is no need to be like this. The matter has come to an end, let Li Zhi be responsible for finding out the reason. You don't have to worry about it."

Jia Xu and Li Xuan immediately stood up and took their seats. When they turned around, they looked at each other, and a look of innocence flashed in their eyes at the same time.

The two of them also knew that the lord had a spy team called the "Red Ant" intelligence organization.However, what they know is limited to this, and they don't know anything about other specific matters.Many people thought that this intelligence organization was in the hands of Li Xuan, the prefect of the county, but it was not the case. Li Xuan was not in charge of this matter at all. The actual controller of this intelligence organization was Li Li, the lord.Li Xuan had secretly speculated that the person in charge of gathering information was probably Li Fu, the old housekeeper of the lord's mansion.But this is just Li Xuan's conjecture, which cannot be confirmed, and he dare not investigate secretly to obtain evidence.

"My lord, I don't know how to deal with the more than 1000 captives?" After taking his seat, Li Xuan asked softly.

Li Li pondered and said: "These more than 2 people are the elite war cavalry of Han Sui and Ma Teng. It would be a pity to discard them. If they are disbanded and sent to various counties for resettlement, I am afraid that they will To cause disasters and troubles. Let’s disrupt and reorganize them with more than 1 Xiutu iron cavalry and reorganize them into an army. Temporarily stay in Guzang City to practice, led by Li Zheng, Huan Lang, Meng Chong, Huang Lie and others are in charge of daily training, and Li Xian is temporarily serving as the commander of the 3-strong army. I will make specific arrangements after I return to Liangzhou. What do you two agree?"

"That's very good, my subordinates have no objections, my lord is wise." Jia Xu and Li Xuan said in response.

"Hehehe!" Li Li said with a smile when he heard the words: "Wise? A decree has been issued for the little emperor to register as a concubine. A child of twelve or thirteen years old actually wanted to establish a concubine, and he made such a grand decree to announce it to the world. I wonder what you two think about this matter?"

After Jia Xu heard the words, he said: "My lord, this is what I want to ask my lord for instructions. The queen mother ordered that Wang Yun's daughter Diaochan be appointed as a concubine, but the time is very short. Today's decree is to marry Diaochan into the palace tomorrow." There is something strange about this matter!"

After Jia Xu finished speaking, Li Xuan followed up and said, "My lord, I don't know if I should ask you something or not?"

Li Li smiled and said: "Does Yuan Zhong want to say that Diao Chan is obviously married to this general, why is there still a Diao Chan in Wang Yun's mansion, right?"

"Master Mingjian, that is indeed the case. Please tell me clearly." Li Xuangong said.

Li Li smiled and said: "Yuan Zhong doesn't know something. Although Wang Yun has no children, he has a biological daughter named Wang Ying, whose baby name is Xiu'er. Coincidentally, this Wang Ying and Hong Chang are cousins. , Wang Ying's biological mother and Hongchang's mother are twin sisters, and Wang Yun is actually Ren Hongchang's uncle. Before Dong Xiangguo entered Luoyang, Wang Yunsheng was afraid that his own daughter would suffer, so he recognized Hongchang as his adopted daughter, but Wang Ying deeply Hiding in the mansion, they don't show up easily. But Hongchang and Wang Ying, the cousins, look very similar, just like their mother, they are not close people who often serve them, and they can't tell who is who.

Earlier, Wang Yun personally came to my house to ask for Hongchang. After being scolded by me, he left in a huff.Afterwards, Wang Yun took care of his face and was afraid that Lv Bu would become angry and hurt him. It just so happened that the woman Lv Bu fell in love with earlier was not Hongchang, but his own daughter Wang Ying.So Wang Yun asked for Hongchang to no avail. After a lot of tossing and turning, he had no choice but to make the mistake and marry Wang Ying to Lu Bu as his equal wife, and incidentally called Wang Ying's name Diaochan.Wang Yun had mentioned this to me in advance, and I immediately agreed.Therefore, Diaochan called back her original name Ren Hongchang, and Wang Yunzhi Wang Ying is now Diaochan.It's just that I never expected that Wang Yun was a famous person in the world anyway, ranking among the three princes, but he was a treacherous person who coveted glory and wealth.Now, he actually dedicates Diao Chan to the little emperor as his concubine again, it's really unbelievable! "

After Jia Xu heard the words, an inscrutable smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "I am afraid that Wang Yun's move is not just to covet the respect and status of the emperor's relatives, maybe he has other plans. After the imperial decree is issued today, as long as Anyone with a discerning eye can't tell that this is Dong Xiangguo's use of the name of establishing a concubine for the emperor, but he actually covets Diao Chan's beauty and wants to take her as his own. What's the use of establishing a concubine for a child in his early ten years old? It’s clear that this is just trying to cover up and deceive people. It’s just that the way this matter is done is too clumsy, and it’s done in a hurry.

Li Xuan nodded approvingly and said, "I'm afraid this matter is not just a matter of being criticized by others, it will cause endless disasters! Wang Situ originally betrothed Wang Ying to Lu Bu, but now he backtracked and gave Diao Chan to Dong Zhuo. Since then, how can Lu Bu give up? Previously, Lu Bu brazenly sent troops to fight our army because of the fact that his lord had taken in Diao Chan. He pointed out that most of the palm of his hand had been cut off, and he was afraid that he would never be able to draw his bow and shoot again, and the name of divine arrow would no longer exist. Lv Bu's old wounds had not healed, and now Dong Xiangguo sprinkled salt on his wounds again, slashing his sword Seize the love, and snatch away his wife Wang Ying again. In this way, the subordinates are worried that Lu Bu may be going crazy, and he will do anything."

After speaking, Li Xuan and Jia Xu looked at Li Li in unison, waiting for his decision.

However, what surprised them was that Li Li's expression was as calm as water, without any emotional fluctuations.

But seeing Li Li leaning on the wide armchair, looking up at the beams of the roof, his expression was peaceful, his eyes were as deep as the sea of ​​rivers, and he was silent, as if indifferent.He just sat there quietly, with his head up in a daze, there was nothing in his pupils, his mind was elusive, and his thoughts were elusive.

After a long while, Li Li pondered and said: "Yuan Zhong, Wen He, what do you think the general should do? You don't have to shy away from other things. There are only three of us, the chief ministers here. Don't blame the speaker, just speak up!"

After Li Xuan and Jia Xu heard the words, they looked at each other, and then they nodded resolutely.

After a while, Li Xuangong said to Li Li: "In today's world, Dong Xiangguo covers the sky with one hand. Although he is not an emperor, his power is more powerful than that of an emperor. If Xiangguo is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, he may be expected to become an emperor and send troops to the Kanto region." , swept away the princes of the towns, and ruled the world. It's a pity that Xiangguo is approaching sixty years old, and he no longer has the ambitions of the past. He is greedy for extravagance and waste, indulges in pleasure, and does not think about progress. The tiger is old, and there is nothing to do! The subordinates suggest that the lord should prepare immediately Return to Liangzhou and stay away from the land of right and wrong in Chang'an!"

Jia Xu then said: "This subordinate agrees with what Yuan Zhong said. According to my lord's previous instructions, everything is ready for the Dongyang Valley camp now. Only waiting for my lord's order, Dongyang Valley will be burnt down. And the new military business has been set up to guard the camp. It is very strict and foolproof. Please make a quick decision, my lord!"

After hearing what they said, Li Li was silent for a long time. After a while, he got up and said, "I will take Wan'er to the Grand Master's Mansion tonight, and then persuade Xiangguo. Do your best and obey the destiny. As the son-in-law of Xiangguo, there are some things I must do it, otherwise my heart will be uneasy. I hope Xiangguo can take back his order and change his mind. Otherwise, our army will withdraw from Chang'an City, and Wenhe will arrange for the army to return to Liangzhou!"

Chapter 247

On the first day of the new year, ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a lottery!One vote counts as two votes, ten votes plus one more chapter, what you say is done!

(Thanks to robysad79 book friend monthly ticket support!)

In the evening, Taishi Mansion.

In the main hall, Li Li and Dong Wan came to the door together to ask to see Dong Zhuo, and sat in the hall waiting for Dong Zhuo to show up to meet him.

But Li Li, Dong Wan and his wife waited for half an hour, but Dong Zhuo still didn't come out.

"Husband, don't worry, maybe father is too busy with government affairs, let's wait a little longer." Dong Wan said softly and comfortingly.

Li Li sat on Dong Wan's head, sat upright, closed his eyes and rested his mind, his body was as motionless as an old monk in meditation.

Sensing the anxiety in Dong Wan's tone, Li Li grinned and said, "I'm fine, I still have some patience. But don't worry too much. The Prime Minister is regent and assists the country, and the military administration is piled up like a mountain. Come here a little later." It's also a matter of course. However, when I saw Xiangguo later, as a son-in-law, it was inconvenient for me to speak out, and I had to persuade you, my own daughter. Remember, don't worry about Xiangguo getting angry. We have to say something clearly tonight, otherwise When the dust settles tomorrow, it will be too late to say anything."

"Thank you for your understanding, I know what to do." Dong Wan looked at Li Li tenderly and said softly.

"Okay. It's better to do this matter sooner rather than later, so as not to regret it after the incident." Li Li said with a slight nod of his head.

"Dum, thump, thump!"

A familiar sound of heavy footsteps came from the side door of the lobby. Li Li, Dong Wan and his wife immediately got up to meet them, and Dong Zhuo finally appeared.

"Hehehe!" Before the person arrived, he heard it with a smile.Dong Zhuo walked into the main hall with a smile, instead of taking the main seat directly, he sat in Li Li's previous seat.He smiled kindly and said: "My good son-in-law, my dear daughter, I kept you waiting for a long time, have you eaten yet?"

"My son-in-law (daughter) has met my father-in-law (father)." After bowing and saluting, Li Li, Dong Wan and his wife sat down beside Dong Zhuo.

As soon as they were seated, Li Li and Dong Wan could smell the strong smell of alcohol on Dong Zhuo's body, but he was not drunk, and his expression was not much different from usual.It can be seen from this that Dong Zhuo's capacity for drinking is very good, and with such a strong smell of alcohol, he is not at all shameless.It's not like ordinary people who blush and have a thick neck after a little wine, and look drunk.

Surprised, Li Li smiled and said, "Thank you father-in-law for your concern. My son-in-law and Wan'er have already had dinner. This time we both came here to visit you, so we don't want to disturb your political affairs. Please forgive me."

"Wenchang, you don't have to be so polite in my house. Some government affairs. It's nothing to worry about. You can come to visit and be a father. This kind of filial piety is more important than anything else. Hehehe!" Dong Zhuo said with a big smile.

Dong Wan got up and walked behind Dong Zhuo, lightly kneading his shoulders, and said with concern: "Father, how is your health these days? My daughter is always concerned about your health, you must take good care of yourself."

Dong Zhuo closed his eyes very warmly, with a kind face.With a very kind expression on her face, she said softly, "Wan'er, you are now Wenchang's wife, so don't worry about being your father. There are hundreds of maids and eunuchs serving you all the time. Don't worry about your health! hehe"

"Father, did you go to the mansion of a minister to drink again just now? Is it at Situ Wangyun's mansion? My daughter also heard that you are going to welcome Wang Yun's daughter Diaochan into the palace as a concubine. Is this true?" Dong Wan asked softly.
